“We’ve made a number of improvements to our network and our customers
now have one of the most reliable networks in Columbus, providing the
strongest data and call connectivity as well as text performance,” said
Joe Meyer, vice president of Sprint Network Performance. “With our new
pricing plans offering the best value in wireless, this is a great time
to give Sprint a try.”

Sprint has been building an all-new network in Columbus and the
surrounding areas. As part of the overhaul, the company has transformed
its network to deliver faster data speeds than before, along with
improved call quality. Network improvements include:

Looking ahead, Sprint will continue to invest in its Columbus network by
implementing new technologies and techniques to make the network more
efficient and deliver improved performance and faster data speeds.

Best Value in Wireless

In addition to offering an all-new network, Sprint is also committed to
providing U.S. consumers and businesses the best value in wireless. With
the Sprint
Family Share Pack, a family switching to Sprint with up to 10 lines
can get 20GB of shared data and unlimited talk and text for only $100 a
month through 2015 after the waived access charges. For a family of
four, that’s a savings of $60 per month versus AT&T and $40 per month
versus Verizon’s current pricing through 2015.1 In addition,
for a limited time, when customers bring their number and activate on
the Sprint Family Share Pack, Sprint will buy out their families’
contracts with a Visa Prepaid Card worth up to $3502. Sprint
also offers customers unlimited talk, text and data for $60 per month
with the Sprint $60 Unlimited Plan – a $20 savings per month compared to
T-Mobile’s $80 unlimited plan3. In addition, Sprint
Business Share plans are available for virtually any mobile device
and offer the flexibility for businesses to select data plans at
competitive prices for almost any data need, up to 800GB for up to 100
lines.
